Pathway To Eternity

"Yes, we will do exactly so. What say you, fiery feathers?"

Black Claw shouted in agreement after getting the concept of the deception.

"No? Okay then, Golden Lights. If you can withstand my ultimate Ghost Shadow Claws, I promise to let you be. On the honour of my name."

Was his name even honourable? Well, If he said it was, then it was.

Black Claws flicked his flying claws, and giant claws of dark ghostly river attacked the flame walls, causing seven of the flame walls to crumble. His mother spat out blood and swallowed one Rootsooth pill. The pill started repairing her internal injuries. She knew she couldn't take another attack like that head-on. She had already used the only lifesaving treasure on her, the heaven otherworld talisman.

"Am I going to die like this?"

"Golden Lights, I must admit, your foundation is really strong. However, you have suffered internal injuries. How long can you hold on then? If you can also withstand my ultimate attack, I also promise to let you be."

Worm Blood shouted while grinning inwardly. At last, vengeance for a just cause.

"Blood Moon Rite."

The sabre light turned into a giant, blood-emitting, red moon, and headed towards the flaming walls, covering the entrance of the cave. But just before hitting the flames wall, the gigantic red moon was blocked by massive yellow stars. These were yellow wave of terra's light from an enormous Warhammer.

"I'm here, Chao Xing. Where are you?"

Fu Yingjie's father's voice boomed out.

"I'm inside the cave. I'm relieved you are here. I thought I was going to die."

Fu Chao Xing looked at her son, and tears rolled down her face as she thought of what could have happened. Fu Yingjie had stared at her crying mother with a raging anger for the two demons outside the cave. He was still furious, when he heard the loud voice of his father, again.

"You dare attack my family?! DIVINE JUDGEMENT!"

Fu Hui's ultimate hammer move. A rainbow hammer light formed a rainbow coloured wyvern which soared towards the two demon lords.

"Blood Moon Rite."

Worm Blood shouted as he quickly used a life-saving treasure.

"Ghost Shadow Claws."

Black Claws screamed, using his own life-preserving treasure too.

Their defensive moves shattered instantly when they collided with the rainbow wyvern of the hammer's light. The pressing intent of the hammer's light which was extremely intense, continued towards the demon lords.

"Trying to face my ultimate move from a heavenly Warhammer head-on? You are surely seeking death?"

But before the rainbow wyvern could reach the demons, everything froze in place.

Yingjie woke up breathing heavily, his mind was startled, and his body was shaken. When would it stop? He would do all he could to make this go away, even if it would cost him his life. After dressing up, he left his room and headed towards the training field.

***

It was a bright and beautiful morning. Ju Feng woke up to a great feeling. After taking care of himself, he departed to the training centre. Feeling good, he smiled as he walked. Ju Feng reached the outskirts of the training centre, and nodded gently to himself.

The training area was incredibly wide. The size of a small village, and was divided into three sections of Zhanshi , Guanjun and Youxiu. The Zhanshi section was for the disciples from year one to two, the Guanjun section was meant for disciples from year three to four, and Youxiu for those from year five to six.

Upon arrival, Ju Feng stood on a spot for several minutes, just looking at the training disciples. There were hundreds of disciples on the training ground practicing different types of techniques and moves. As he walked towards the Zhanshi section of the training ground, he could see the Youxiu section not too far away, and he decided to get a little bit closer.

These were the exceptional disciples that had been in the sect for a minimum of five years. Some of them were training together in groups while some were training individually. But the most amazing thing was the execution of their techniques and moves, it was a thing of beauty to behold. These techniques were high techniques at the least.

He was so lost in joyous trance that he wasn't aware of Yingjie coming up behind him.

"Amazing, isn't it?"

"Yingjie, sorry, i didn't notice your arrival."

"These were truly great to see. The power of Zhuji level and high techniques, truly formidable. But if you think you've seen them all, wait till you see the geniuses of Last-Swords. Their power...." Yingjie trailed off.

"Yes, the beauty of seeing young people perform such acts, truly beautiful. I can't wait to see the geniuses, i can already imagine it. Uhm, not that I haven't seen powers before, even my mother is a nascent soul demigod with really scary power, but this is us. The young ones."

Hearing Ju Feng called his mother a nascent soul, a demigod! Yingjie's heart skipped and beat very fast. A demigod! Should he ask for help? Could there be a way for his own family now? Could they be saved? How true were Ju Feng words? He was in deep thoughts as they moved to the Zhanshi section.

"This is a second grade agility technique, the Swift Spine technique. Maybe it will help me move a lot easier and faster instead of crawling like a worm all the time."

Ju Feng laughed, patting his own leg.

Despite the fact that it was a second grade technique, it was better than nothing. It was a difficult technique and would take him quite a long time to master but he would learn it. He was practicing the swift spine technique for a time before switching to shifting heavens hand technique. He kept rotating his training between the two techniques.

Yingjie decided to joined Ju Feng for a little training too to keep his mind clear.

They started to train together.

As Ju Feng was practicing the swift spine technique when he took one step only to find himself several yards from the initial place he was. He tried the taking the swift steps and was very happy when he realized that he had already learned the basics of the swift steps.

He decided it was enough for the day, the following day he would continue again, after all, he didn't have any lecture for the next two days.

"Truly remarkable."

Elder of the house of light, elder Cao Wang Xiu nodded, beaming with smile. She would wait a bit and observe some more before taking the next course of action.
